Cute that they call that high speed (I drive faster on the highway) 😂

I’m taking the train to Frankfurt in august and it only needs 45 minutes because it goes 300kmh (187mph according to google)

[ohblimeygeorge]

Seeing Oscar’s had a broken rib since July got me thinking just how many other drivers have driven with similar breaks and we just… don’t know.

i do think. as much of a deal i make about marc being a lil weird about his pain. that the motogp press establishment is infinitely more obsessed with taking his pain and lionizing it. narrativizing it. making it a monument to racers (and often marc specifically) being sort of. superhuman beings who can white knuckle through any injury because their noble devotion to the sport can overcome it all. which is of course a very flawed line of thinking to propagate amongst the fans and employees of a sport that involves people flinging themselves off of motorcycles at 300kmh. but nonetheless it helps create this sporting narrative (frequently FULLY endorsed by a lot of the fans, the press/media, the motogp DOCTORS, and the riders themselves) that takes very stupid decisions concerning the health and safety and well-being of these people and transform those decisions into something to be rewarded as the ultimate ideal of what it means to be a motorcycle racer. no pain no gain, even when you literally don’t even gain anything !! and it’s not unique to motogp whatsoever but it IS still weird and i don’t think it should be glossed over

I was wondering aboyt creating a world of winged people, especially how their architecture would look. I imagine they'd have lots of tall towers with few ground entrances, most Entrances are partway up buildings or on rooftops. I also suppose the doors are wider than tall for their wings. How about security though, when every balcony/window is a potential entrance? Maybe windows are supposed to be small or doesn't open wide so people can't easily fit through? Would they have separate vocabulary between a balcony as we actually have but can also double as an entrance and a balcony that is meant to be an entrance to a building? Maybe buildings that even lack stairs or lifts is quite common?  Anything I'm missing or need to take into account? Also I imagine some of the homeless population might be in the trees I guess? Hey so I asked earlier today about a race of flying people. Just one more questions if you don't mind. What flying speeds/endurance would make sense? As I have it now, the top athletes can reach speeds of up to 350kmh, the equivalent of sprinting and can only sustain it for a minute. But I suppose the average person's top speeds would be more like 300kmh? The average person's casual speed would be around 80kmh I suppose, the equivalent of leisurely walking.

Ebonwing: Depends on how comfortable they are with walking. Lots of winged humans in fiction are as comfortable with walking as they are with flying, and if they are and do a lot of walking they’d have ground entrances and whatnot. If they *don’t* feel comfortable with it, or if it’s difficult for them, then they might favour building upwards rather than sideways. 

That being said, only air entrances are unlikely. There will be people who can’t fly well or at all, be it because they’re children or old or disabled. Unless you want to create a society that excludes these groups, you will need to construct your buildings around the presence of ground entrances.

When it comes to security, all you need is break-in secure doors and windows you can close at night, or shutters that are secure that you can close. Getting up on the balcony is often not that difficult in real life either, after all. 

Having different words for main-door-balcony and non-main-door balcony is certainly possible, but they might also just not distinguish between balconies and entrances, where balcony and front door are synonymous but the rare balcony that doesn’t have a door inside gets a different word. 

In terms of speed: Winged humans already don’t make much sense from a logical standpoint, which is fine because people are willing to suspend their disbelief for it. That also means you have leeway when it comes to top speeds, but consider that the fastest bird we know of is the peregrine falcon with a top speed of 389km/h according to wikipedia, which isn’t that much faster than your winged people–and that’s diving speed, not regular flight speed. Most birds will not reach 350 or even 300 km/h, and your average speed is likewise higher than most bird’s average. I personally would find it difficult to believe they can go faster than almost all real birds. That being said, do you even need to put a hard number on it? If you’re creating this species for a story, most people won’t care too much about how fast exactly they can go. 

Licorice: Ebonwing makes a good point: your society will need to consider the needs of its members who cannot fly well or at all because they are too young, too old, or disabled. 

As well as their wings, you need to consider their legs and feet. Many species of birds cannot perch, and some cannot walk. I’m not enough of an ornithologist to know which ones exactly, but I have never seen a duck or a swan in a tree, and although the place I live is swarming with seagulls, I’ve never seen a seagull perching in a tree either. Ducks and swans nest on the ground whereas the seagulls around here prefer rooftops, especially flat ones.

 I think the anatomy of your people’s legs and feet may dictate their architecture as much as their wings will. 

You may have noticed that birds who can fly often choose not to, especially if they’re only going a short distance. IIRC, for many species of birds it takes a lot more effort to get airborne than it does to start walking. Your winged people may prefer stairs; it may just be easier for them. 

I was wondering whether a society of people who can fly would develop an etiquette for respecting each other’s privacy. For example, in our society it’s considered very rude to walk up to a stranger’s house and peer in through their windows. Your flying people might have some similar protocol about not flying over or close to each other’s dwellings, unless invited. 

Feral: In architectural terms, a balcony is very much not an entrance (note in the link that “accessible” here refers to accessibility from an interior room). Neither is a window. In written media, being specific with your terminology can go a long way to keep you having to break down every little detail. What you are describing is more like a porch, which has the added benefit of sounding like “perch,” or veranda. (I thought it might also be helpful to know what a terrace is, as that seems like a practical addition to your architecture.)

Could someone leave or break-in via a balcony or window? Yes, of course, they can and do without wings here on Earth, but if you are clear with your terms, that will be understood your audience as at best not the intended use and at worst abhorrent and criminal use without you needing to say so.

300kmh through the countryside

[nighttimeenjoyer]

sometimes am scared of my lack of consideration for whats normal as i drink way 2 much caffeine and work for like 16 hours a day but then i watch those 300kmh car crash videos and remind myself that at least im not that guy

[abr]

405kmh per la precisione. Poi dice che l'assessor Mazzei di Milano c'ha torto a voler portare il limite in città a 300kmh - Wtf ?!!?

(tra il senso dei numeri, cioè la realtà conoscibile non opinabile e il milieu culturale di giornalai più intellettuame vario di provincia, c'è sempre stata la Cortina di Ferro).

Tuesday Train, The Shinkansen, Mishima in Japan

This week I took my first ever bullet train from Mishima to Kyoto. 300kmh. Japan is developing a maglev network to go even faster – I need to come …Tuesday Train, The Shinkansen, Mishima in Japan

[serpentium13]

I feel like going fast,like going very fast somewhere like seeing only a glimpse of what surrounds me,as I am in a car and going with 300kmh ,like I am addicted to this speed.I feel being in so many places so many lights.

Brightline West will Change the Perception of High Speed Rail in America

(Yes I know this not related to art but I really wanted to talk about this)

Yesterday, it was announced that Brightline, a passenger rail company running higher speed trains in Florida, had received $3 billion of federal funding which will allow them to begin construction on their high speed rail between Las Vegas and Las Angeles area. And this will actually be a true high speed rail line with a top speed of 185mph (300kmh) on a dedicated right of way built in between the median of I-15. As someone who's been following this project and Brightline for 5 years, this news excites me because not only do I have the utmost faith that they'll get this project done within the 2 to 3 years projected, but I truly believe with the completion of this railroad, that public perception of high speed rail and passenger rail in general will change for the good. I know that's a loaded statement but here me out.

In the United States, we dont have any form of high speed rail. We have the Northeast Corridor, Brightline in Florida, and places in Illinois and Michigan where trains run faster than the national capped speed limit of 79mph, but not much in the way of true high speed rail like in France and Japan. In fact, we probably have the most outdated national passenger network in the world. That wasnt always the case, we used to have one of the best passenger trains in the world.....until the end of world war 2 however. With the rise of the automobile, car dependant suburbs, and a highway network, trains were seen as an outdated form of transport with the car being seen as the future. This wasn't exclusive to America though, as many 1st world countries 50s also had this mindset. To most, trains would eventually go the way of the canal.........that is until Japan stepped in showed the world that the train wasnt dead through the creation of the Shinkansen, the world's first modern high speed rail line. Many countries would follow Japan's example, including France, Germany, Italy, and others. But as for America.....its complicated. The high speed ground transportation act was passed in 1965 but not much came from it apart from Budd's Metroliner which couldnt meet expecations, and the UAC Turbo Train still holds the record of the fastest production train in North America at 170.8mph. Outside of that, we didnt really invest much into high speed rail and improving our rail system, outside of a few regions in the country. We continued build highways and sprawling suburbs. Because of this, by the 1990s we were far behind the rest of the developed world in terms of high speed rail. I mean there was the Acela Express, but its more of a high speed service than true high speed rail. And its because of this that the stigma of passenger rail being an outdated form of transport never went a way like it did in other developed countries, and honestly its even worse now since many of the people who were around during the glory days of passenger trains are no longer with us.

But why do we need high speed rail and, hell, better passenger rail? Arent passenger trains slow, dirty, outdated, and a boondogle for democrats to ship immigrants to low income people into the backyard of my mcmansion #notinmybackyard? (okay I promised myself I wouldn't get politcal here but the sad truth is that passenger rail in America is political, with the left being in support of it and the right being against.....its time like these where I do wish we had more than 2 voting options). The reason why need rail in general is due to the fact that options for traveling between cities are limited...outside the northeast. If you want go from Charlotte to Atlanta, Houston to Dallas, or Las Angeles to San Francisco, you either have to drive or fly. For driving, you're limited to one interstate between the cities and you'll mostly be in for a lot of traffic and headaches. For flying, you'll have to get to the airport, go through a painfully slow check in process where they have to make sure you're not terriorst, then you got into the fucking plane where you barely have any room and the window is so tiny, usually dealing with parents who cant shut their kids up unless they have an ipad in their face and Im pretty sure you can tell that I dont particularly like flying. These options can be pretty annoying but they're the best ones you got. Sure you got Amtrak but usually they only run one train between those cities with inconvenient hours and from some of them, Amtrak doesn't even serve them anymore. This is why a third option is needed. High speed rail and upgraded conventional rail can make these corridors competitive for travel, since they're too long to drive to short to fly. And it will be much more environmentally friendly as well which is a urgently needed in order to combat climate change. And one of those cities I mentioned (mainly LA and San Fran) are being connected by High Speed Rail at this moment.......and it wont be done until the 2050s at the latest... Time to talk about California High Speed Rail.

One of the biggest high speed rail projects going on the US right now is the California High Speed Rail, an ambitious project connecting Los Angeles and San Francisco with more connections in the future. You've probably herd of this project and if you have, it probably wasn't good. Despite being voted on in 2008, they havent really gotten anywhere in the past 15 years. Most of the construction is being done on an isolated segment in the San Jose Valley, a flatter and sparsly populated region with mid sizes cities, with little to no work being done in Los Angeles and San Francisco. The San Jose section is set to be done as early as the 2030s and is also over budget. Its this project that I feel has not only ruined the reputation of high speed rail, and added to the poorer perception of passenger rail in general. To most, high speed rail is soon as a boondoggle and a complete waste of tax payer money, and attempts to necromancy a form of transport that hasn't been relevant in the US since 1945. I know not everyone feels this way, but the truth is a lot of Americans are ignorant about passenger rail in general and cant really see the potential for it like most around the world do. And who can blame them! Like I said, the generation that believed in passenger rail, who around during its heyday are long dead, with the eldest generation having grown in sprawling suburbs and with car culture. They never got to experience what life was like before, and so base their world view on what they're used to, and passed on to future generations. Its why any proposals for high speed rail and improvements to rail in general have been shot down because they dont see trains as anything more than old fashioned, because thats what they're used to. That's what they are in most of the country. However, as stated in the title, I believe this can change, and it all starts with Brightline.

Brightline is a private passenger rail operator in Florida running higher speed services between Miami and Orlando. They've been operating since 2018 but it wasn't until September of this year that the Orlando extension opened. This rail line has been making headlines across the country with their sleek modern trains, efficient services, and changing the perception of rail in general. I've been following Brightline for a while and I cant express how blown away I've been. The fact that they got this project off the ground at all is an achievement, and the fact we have trains running at 125mph outside the Northeast is insane! Something like this shouldnt exist in United States. It should've been shot down thanks to NIMBYs and Republican Politicians, but they somehow broke the curse and actually brought a modern fast service that many people enjoy and is actually turning a profit. Its because of this that I have no doubt that Brightline will succeed in this recent project as well. Brightline Florida is good but its not high speed rail. Brightline's Las Vegas project is, and I am 100% confident that this will be the nations first true high speed rail line long before CHSR gets done. And when it does, it will change the perception of high speed rail in America as something that can actually be tangible, and not just a fantasy, and will help jump start and bring more confidence and support to other projects across the US. I think most people will look to Brightline when they think of High Speed Rail, and view the concept in a more positive light that California High Speed Rail will ever do. There has never been brighter future for High Speed Rail in America than there is today and I cant wait to see what's in store for Brightline and other future projects.

Also if you're a republican voter reading this, please dont get offended. Im just stating what I've seen and I know not ever republican thinks to the same
